You need good fitness from the players and the organisational structure has to be there from early on in pre-season because the games come so quickly that you don't have much time on the grass with the players to shuffle the pack tactically.

If your performance levels are right, that brings results and that brings momentum naturally. We believe in the training schedule.

We want to be strong and we want to be in a position to maximise the potential of the players in every game because it's a long season with 46 league games.
